Secret Post Club - July

It's that time again. There was no Secret Post Club in June due to Heather, the organiser, being super busy. We'll let her off on that one, hey?

Anyway, it returned in July and I have duly dispatched my gift and received my parcel yesterday from Amy at Baking Mad Mama.

My Secret Post Club parcel crept up on me somewhat as it was a book from Amazon. I picked up my post and thought "what have I been ordering now" - I do tend to pre-order a lot of stuff so am never sure what is going to arrive and when, but once I opened the parcel I realised what it was as it was beautifully gift-wrapped!

I was quite excited to open the parcel as anyone who knows me well will know that I love books, and even more so, I love cookery books and have somewhat of a collection. Now I have a new one for my collection!

Amy had cottoned on to the fact that I am quite the fan of Tex Mex food and managed to also find a cookery book that I hadn't already got - no mean feat when I have over 210.

I've already flicked through the book and I love it. One of the things I love about cookery books is reading them. I know that sounds odd but it's true, and so I love ones that have a little bit of background of the origins of the food, like this one.

I've already earmarked a few recipes to experiment with. Huevos Rancheros, Chicken Mole Enchiladas using homemade Tex-Mex Mole, Chile con Queso, Green Chile Fried Chicken and Tortilla Soup are just a few of the great sounding recipes that I hope to give a go in the near future!

Thanks for a great gift Amy and for a great addition to my collection!

love & kisses
